Jordan hanged two terrorists early Wednesday, in a swift response to the release of a video showing ISIS burning alive a captured air force pilot, and vowed an “earth-shaking” response to the terror group’s sadistic slaughter.
Jordan's King Abdullah, who was in Washington for a diplomatic mission when the video depicting the horrific death of Lt. Muath al-Kaseasbeh hit the Internet, met with lawmakers and then President Obama after getting word of Al-Kaseasbeh's death. Although the meetings were private, lawmakers said Abdullah, a former military general and special forces commander who has ruled the Arab nation since his father's death in 1999, was angry and resolute.
"He said there is going to be retribution like ISIS hasn’t seen,” said Rep. Duncan Hunter Jr., R-Calif., a Marine Corps veteran of two tours in Iraq and one in Afghanistan, who was in the meeting with the king. “He mentioned ‘Unforgiven’ and he mentioned Clint Eastwood, and he actually quoted a part of the movie.”
The retribution began even before King Abdullah returned to Amman, as Jordan executed two key Iraqi Al Qaeda operatives at dawn Wednesday. One was Sajida al-Rishawi, a woman who had been sentenced to death after her 2005 role in a triple hotel bombing that killed 60 people in Amman. The other was Ziad al-Karbouly, an Iraqi who served as an aide to Al Qaeda in Iraq founder Abu Musab al-Zarqawi.

Remember when Clinton famously said, “It depends on what the meaning of the word ‘Is’, is.”
“It depends on what the meaning of the word ‘IS, IS’.”
“It depends on what the meaning of the word ‘ISIS’.”
President Clinton was foreshadowing the rise of ISIS.
A nuke dropped on ISIS would ‘earth-shaking’.
RE: A nuke dropped on ISIS would ‘earth-shaking’.
Sure, but that would also kill all the other people we’re trying to protect from ISIS.
MeshugeMikey,
Pretty sad that obammy is less a man by a mile than this “king”.
Correct. And don’t forget that Lot was a just man whose seed was worth saving to the extent that God guided him and his family out of Sodom before it was destroyed.

The pilot was serving the King so he's going to take this very personally.
